Sites feature picnic tables, fire rings, and lantern hooks. Amenities include flush toilets, potable water from faucets (when temperatures are above freezing), and a dump station. An onsite camp host provides assistance during the operating season. The recreation area also features a designated swimming beach on Brandywine Lake. Glass containers are prohibited in swimming areas, and swimming is restricted to designated zones. Dogs must remain on a leash no longer than 6 feet.
